03-Sep-2007 -- Back from the trip to Jesús Maria and Obera we drove near a confluence in Entre Rios with just 31 mi f detour-

After crossing the tunnel to Santa Fe we took route 12 to Crespo, from there the provincial road 20 until Segui; then the route to Don Cristobal which placed us at a distance of only 2.5 mi. A local road, perpendicular to our route started at a few meters from the point in which we crossed 60W took us within 0.7 mi of our goal, and then, entering the fields we could approach even more. We stopped our car at 2,460 ft from the confluence in front of a house on a beautiful field ready for crop and some others with cattle.

A very kind woman welcomed us and told us that the owner would be there in any moment, so we waited. After ten minutes he arrived and asked us into the house, there he listened to our explanations about our purpose. Not only he let us proceed, he came with us and took us within 197 ft on his truck. We stepped down, crossed a wire fence and made it to the magical place. We took the photos and came back to another long and beautiful conversation with Mr. Otilio Raul Rattero, owner of the Santa Lucia property, his nephew Domingo Efrain Rattero and his wife Ana Maria Van Asten; who are our new friends as a result of this confluence adventure.
